A Regex problem

Question

Hi;

I'm trying to parse a string with Regex but I am not able to..

For example there is 2 samples;

City:Empty          --->Dont parse
City:Newyork     --->parse
City:Mumbai      --->parse

I want to get "City:Newyork and City:Mumbai ". So I want to choose all samples like this; There will be "City:" string but NOT "Empty" string at the end.

How can I do that?

I think this should work: using System; using System.Text.RegularExpressions; class Test { static void Main() { string[] strings = {City:Empty City:NewYork City:Mumbai}; string regExp = ^City:(?!Empty).*$; for(int i = 0; i Console.ReadKey(); } } The output should of course be: False True True

I mean the string should start with City: but not end with Empty..
